- Q: What are the reasons for sealing a stone surface and when is the ideal time to do so?
- A: Sealing a stone surface is crucial to prevent immediate staining from spills and to protect against permanent damage. While sealing provides effective protection, it is important to clean up spills promptly. Different natural stone surfaces require specific sealing methods. For sandstone, terracotta, and limestone, it is recommended to seal them before they are laid and grouted. These materials are highly porous and can quickly absorb stained water from adhesives and grout. Terracotta, in particular, should be sealed on all sides before installation due to its high porosity. Limestone is also susceptible to staining, and caution should be exercised while handling it to avoid leaving finger marks that can later stain the surface. Granite, marble, slate, and travertine, on the other hand, are sealed on all edges and the top after they are laid and grouted. Thorough cleaning is essential prior to the sealing process for these types of floors.
- Q: What type of guarantee is offered with tile sealing services?
- A: Tile sealing services typically do not come with guarantees. The lifespan of our Impregnating Water Based Sealers is approximately up to 10 years, depending on various factors such as the quality of the stone, traffic levels, and maintenance practices. It is essential to note that sealing does not create an impenetrable barrier, but rather provides a timeframe to address spills. While an unsealed floor can stain immediately, a sealed floor is resistant to staining and allows for a reaction time of 4-5 hours. A penetrating sealer is applied just below the surface of the stone, preventing spills from penetrating and staining the stone. However, it is unable to prevent acid-based spills (like red wine, vinegar, urine, fruit juice, etc.) from causing etching or burning on the stone surface, leading to a dull or frosty appearance. It is crucial to promptly clean up spills of this nature to prevent permanent damage to the stone surface.
- Q: What measures can I take to maintain the fresh appearance of my stone tiles?
- A: To maintain the fresh appearance of your stone tiles and grout, Tile Cleaners® suggests a weekly cleaning routine using a damp microfiber cloth and a mild detergent. This helps remove dirt and grime from the tiled surface. It's important to avoid using strong detergents that may affect the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances. For optimal protection against staining, our top recommendation is to have your stone tiles sealed with one of our highest quality sealers. Sealing provides the best safeguard for your stone tiles.
